Yeah! I loved the idea of iron cosplay. But it seems like it'd be complicated. I mean... would it be done with random items? Actual cloth? How much sewing would be involved? How much hotmelt glue/fabric glue? would we require a waiver/entry fee; would it have it's own compititon, or just a catagory in the normal cosplay? Would we have guest stars?

Maybe I need to watch more cable.

There probably would have to be an entry fee, so that there is at least a baseline of materials available for anyone who wanted to enter. I would suggest construction paper, some sturdy glue, safety pins, bottom-of-the-barrel cheap fabric and thread, elbow macaroni and glitter, and garbage bags.

Iron Cosplay is usualy the idea of on a timer, figuring out how to do a costume with weird and wacky items. The ones I have seen have no sewing involved at all. And I have seen macaroni..the big kind...mostly used to make fake jewlery.

I was thinking, it was really helpful when I went to the panel for first time con-goers, or maybe even first time small con goers. so I think it'd be a good idea to run that again. I'd be willing to help for that, since I have the experience of being a first timer fresh in my mind.

Sorry for the double post, but this place died down anyways. I know that the idea was passed around about an Iron Chef Cosplay last year, but I had a different idea when I was thinking about that. What about Iron Chef Bento/ How to do a Bento? I'd definately check either of those out.
